Description:

Poetry. Latino/Latina Studies. Translated from the Spanish by Scott Spanbauer. "Into orange blossoms, dancing castanets, clouding sandscapes, Laura Cesarco Eglin weaves dreamy memories of a rioplatense childhood and a maturing poet's understanding of language's ability to make, unmake, and remake the world. While 'all that remains of the sand / is the word handful,' Cesarco Eglin keeps language fresh—woodsing, outjugated, underbay—and her imaginative leaps teach us 'how to live our death' and how to live with insistent longing: 'Rewinding moments / in the shadow of later because / when I say enough it's already gone.' Through Scott Spanbauer's deft and daring translations, English speakers now have a chance to experience one of Uruguay's loveliest emerging voices."—Ron Salutsky
